Laura Veirs

Born in Colorado Springs in 1973, Laura Veirs came to music by chance, but her debut albums Troubled By the Fire (2003) and Carbon Glacier (2004), driven by haunted folk songs, quickly caught the attention of fans. Her steady output makes her one of the genre's finest representatives, as author of the albums Year of Meteors (2005), Saltbreakers (2007) and July Flame (2009). In 2013, Warp & Weft returned to a more rock-oriented vein, reminding us that psychedelic rock and garage rock are as much a part of her roots as Americana. It would be three years before we saw her back in action, this time as a trio, in the company of two other figures from the alternative folk scene: K.D. Lang and Neko Case. Together, they signed the album Case/Lang/Veirs in June 2016.
